I just recently aquired a Monson Made 445 Supermag in SS. I traded a Ruger Mini 14 Target for the pistol, dies, 125 rounds and a case of 1000 new starline brass, and I have to be honest when I say I did it only because i knew these pistols were hard to come by. anyhow, I took it to the range today for the first time, and all I can say is WOW! I thought of this as an investment, but now I think it is my favorite pistol! The gun had only 50 or so rounds through it (according to the original owner) and I doubled that today. Im in love.

So now that I have this new toy, I have a quaestion for you pro's. I want to scope this pistol and need advice on what scope you all recommend. Price range is in the 200 or so range. Also, what mount? I read B-square mounts were great, but they no longer make them and are hard to come by. What about Buehler's? Does the Buehler clamp on like the B-square, or does it need additional work?

Thanks for the info, and ill be sure to post pics of the pistola when I get a chance.

I've got the B-square and a 2x Leupold on my 357max and it's held up to years of heavy shooting.  The Leupold isn't the best for late evening shooting; I have a 4x Tasco on mu Contender that has a much brighter picture in the evening.  I put the scope on a light, slotted shroud to keep the wt down and can switch to open sights with the regular shroud.  I had a Red dot scope at first, but recoil kept loosening the battery cover.

I recently saw a Beuhler on GunBroker, I think it might still be an active auction. Check WTS here as well, someone recently had two B Squares, I know one sold, one might still be available.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Nice find! I love my Monson .445, it is a great shooter and really flattens rams.
